Every time that Vapaad is mentioned in a novel they go out of their way to mention that Vapaad was a way to channel Mace's inner darkness which based on his demeanor has quite a bit of rage.
Now if you wish to say Vapaad has no rage for its enemy to feed off that would be correct. But no matter the opponent, even if its a droid Mace's Vapaad has an inherent boost to his combat skill. In this case he won't get a farther boost from Jaina. That doesn't mean he's not getting one.

I'm gonna go with Jaina. She's got Boba Fett training, and Vapaad has no rage to feed off of.I'd say Fett Training beats Vapaad in this circumstance.
Vapaad has inner-rage to feed off of.
"I created Vaapad to answer my weakness: it channels my own darkness into a weapon of the light".
―Mace Windu to Obi-Wan Kenobi
And Fett's "training" is a joke, compared to the deadliest Lightsaber/Combat style ever devised in the Galaxy.
Amazing how people don't grasp the simple concept of just how effective and deadly Vapaad is.
I once had a Dumbass tell me that Vapaad was deadly, because it was "deadly to the user as well".
The retard didn't understand that the danger inherent in Vapaad, means a pull, right into the Dark side.
People need to do their homework.

I didn't read most of the shitty NJO/FotJ books - so I'd have to see some decent feats for Jaina before considering her being Windu's equal.
Mace Windu uses the Broken Gate style of combat - which is a Jedi Martial Art.
He is a Master of it - and nearly defeated Kar Vastor with it; being able to strike Kar six times before the Lor Pelek could blink.
Kar Vastor would literally rape Jaina, and eat her afterwards.
So I'm seeing Mace stomp her a new hole, here.
